NSSF Welcomes Rep. Clay Higgins’ Law Enforcement Protection and Privacy Act

Posted on Tuesday, 4 March, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

March 3, 2025

NSSF Welcomes Rep. Clay Higgins’ Law Enforcement Protection and Privacy Act

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, welcomes U.S. Rep. Clay Higgins’ (R-La.) introduction of H.R. 1698, the Law Enforcement Protection and Privacy Act, which will enhance safeguards for protected firearm trace data. This legislation is vital to ensuring firearm trace data, which is protected by federal law, remains safeguarded from misuse that threatens investigations and lives. The bill puts “teeth to the Tiahrt rider,” by providing accountability for individuals who purposefully and unlawfully release this sensitive law enforcement information that is reserved for use in law enforcement investigations.

“This legislation is long overdue and necessary to send a strong message that there will now be consequences for those who would unlawfully disclose law enforcement sensitive firearm trace data that jeopardizes ongoing criminal investigations and puts the lives of law enforcement officers, undercover agents and witnesses at risk,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “It will prevent the unauthorized release of trace data by ATF and others to gun control groups and agenda-driven media outlets who have misused the data to launch ‘name-and-shame’ attacks to smear the reputation of law-abiding members of the firearm industry. We thank Congressman Clay Higgins for his leadership in protecting the integrity of ongoing criminal investigations and the lives of law enforcement officers and witnesses including licensed retailers and their reputations in their communities.”

The Law Enforcement Protection and Privacy Act:

Makes clear that the contents of National Trace Center is not subject to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests.
Establishes penalties for the unauthorized release of firearm trace data up to $10,000 for first violation per disclosure of an individual record and $25,000 for any other violations. It would also result in loss of access to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ (ATF) National Tracing Center (NTC) Firearm Tracing System (FTS) for one year for those who fail to comply with the law.
Provides federal firearms licensees (FFLs) a private right of action against a Federal agency or a local, tribal or foreign entity if data concerning them is unlawfully released, and if the FFL prevails the FFL would be awarded the greater of triple the amount of damages suffered or $25,000 for each discloser of information, punitive damages as the court allows and attorney’s fee and court costs.
Removes sovereign immunity as a defense to actions to enforce violations of the law.

The Tiahrt amendment prohibits the release of firearm trace data to anyone other than law enforcement or prosecutors investigating a crime. Currently, there are no penalties for when individuals or agencies ignore this law and release this data to advance a political gun control agenda. While ATF could, under memorandum of understanding, disallow access to the data by those who violate the agreement, ATF has never enforced that provision.

Unfortunately, this protected data has been abused, including by the ATF under the Biden administration, in “name-and-shame” efforts to malign firearm retailers, despite ATF’s longstanding admonition noting that trace data “in no way suggests that either the federal firearms licensed dealer (FFL) or the first purchaser has committed criminal acts.”

When a firearm is recovered at a crime scene or criminal arrest, a police department may forward information to the ATF to track the chain of custody of a firearm through the licensed distribution system to the original retail purchaser. The ATF then sends back the information to the reporting agency so they can use it in a criminal case, if warranted. ATF also uses the data in support of illegal firearms trafficking investigations.

Public release of gun trace data outside law enforcement would jeopardize ongoing criminal investigations, putting the lives of law enforcement, witnesses and others at risk. This is why Congress, the ATF and law enforcement, including the nation’s largest police organization, the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), agree on the importance of securing this sensitive data. Access to gun trace data should only be available to law enforcement taking part in a bona-fide investigation, and law enforcement already has the access it needs for this purpose. No law enforcement agency has ever been denied access to trace data as part of a criminal investigation.

About NSSF

NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

GA-ASI Welcomes USAF Designation for New CCA: YFQ-42A

Posted on Tuesday, 4 March, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

GA-ASI WELCOMES USAF DESIGNATION FOR NEW CCA: YFQ-42A

SAN DIEGO – 3 March 2025 – General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) welcomes the U.S. Air Force’s designation for its Collaborative Combat Aircraft: the new uncrewed jet fighter will be called the YFQ-42A. The announcement on Monday followed an earlier USAF decision in 2024 that GA-ASI was selected to develop and build the YFQ-42A.

“We’re proud to get a new official aircraft designation,” said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. “YFQ-42A continues a long and distinguished history for GA-ASI that dates back to the 1990s and the debut of the RQ-1 Predator^®, which later changed to MQ-1 Predator. That uncrewed aircraft gave way to the MQ-9A Reaper^®, the MQ-20 Avenger^®, our new MQ-9B SkyGuardian^®and SeaGuardian^®, and many others.

“These aircraft represent an unrivaled history of capable, dependable uncrewed platforms that meet the needs of America’s warfighters and point the way to a significant new era for airpower.”

The Air Force selected YFQ-42A as the Mission Design Series (MDS) for GA-ASI’s CCA prototype, representing the first in a new generation of unmanned fighter aircraft. YFQ-42A will be critical in securing air dominance for the Joint Force in future conflicts, leveraging autonomous capabilities and crewed-uncrewed teaming to defeat enemy threats in contested environments.

The Air Force is developing Autonomous Collaborative Platforms to maintain its air superiority. Semi-autonomous aircraft, like YFQ-42A, will enhance flexibility, affordability, and mission effectiveness. YFQ-42A will enhance air superiority as a flexible, affordable force multiplier. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with current and next-generation crewed aircraft, expanding mission capabilities and ensuring continued air dominance. In short, YFQ-42A provides fighter capacity – affordable mass – at a lower cost and on a threat-relevant timeline.

The YFQ-42A designation follows the Air Force’s decision to designate GA-ASI’s highly common predecessor aircraft as the XQ-67A Off-Board Sensing Station. The XQ-67A was ordered by the Air Force Research Lab to support the development of concepts necessary to implement the vision for CCA.

In the Air Force system, an “X” plane is designed for testing and experimentation, while “Y” describes initial production-representative aircraft, usually ahead of a formal program. “F” is for fighter and “Q” designates an uncrewed aircraft. Once the production-representative aircraft moves into production, the “Y” will drop from the prefix.

GA-ASI will have a one-sixth scale model of the YFQ-42A on display during the Air Warfare Symposium March 3-5, 2025, in booth #1003.

About GA-ASI

General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI), an affiliate of General Atomics, is a leading designer and manufacturer of proven, reliable RPA systems, radars, and electro-optic and related mission systems, including the Predator^® RPA series and the Lynx^® Multi-mode Radar.

New Partner with a Payer Video Showcases How Firearm and Ammunition Industry Supports Elk Restoration in Pennsylvania

Posted on Monday, 3 March, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

New Partner with a Payer Video Showcases How Firearm and Ammunition Industry Supports Elk Restoration in Pennsylvania

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF^®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, in partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the Pennsylvania Game Commission and Beretta, is proud to release the latest installment in the Partner with a Payer^® video series. This new video highlights the significant impact of Pittman-Robertson Act funding on the successful restoration and management of Pennsylvania’s elk population.

For decades, the excise taxes paid by firearm, ammunition and archery manufacturers through the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act have provided a steady and reliable source of funding for wildlife conservation efforts in all 50 states. This funding has been instrumental in restoring species like elk, deer, wild turkeys, waterfowl and countless non-game species, as well as enhancing habitat and outdoor recreation opportunities for millions of Americans.

One powerful example of this impact can be seen in Pennsylvania. Once nearly eliminated from the region, elk now thrive thanks to decades of conservation efforts made possible by the excise taxes paid by firearm, ammunition and archery manufacturers through the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act. These funds have enabled habitat restoration, herd health monitoring and sustainable management of Pennsylvania’s now-thriving elk herd, estimated at 1,400 to 1,500 animals.

“Our agency takes ZERO state tax dollars; we are completely independently funded through the sale of hunting licenses, wildlife restoration dollars from the Pitman-Robertson Act and revenues we generate from our state game land system,” said David Gustafson, Director, Bureau of Wildlife Habitat Management, Pennsylvania Game Commission.

To see the impact of these funds firsthand, a team from Beretta USA, one of the many manufacturers contributing to Pittman-Robertson excise taxes, visited Pennsylvania to observe how their contributions are used to sustain conservation efforts. Through this video series, viewers can see firsthand how this funding model supports not only wildlife but also local economies by driving tourism and outdoor recreation opportunities.

“Thanks to the Pittman-Robertson Act, [the Pennsylvania Game Commission] was able to fund the habitat for the reintroduction of elk,” said Joe Cunniffe, Brand Marketing Manager, Hunting, Beretta USA. “Now they actually have a huntable population.”

“We cannot have places to go and spend time in the outdoors without the conservation efforts from these excise tax dollars,” said David Armistead, Manufacturing Manager, Beretta USA.

Pennsylvania’s elk restoration is just one of many examples of how Pittman-Robertson funding benefits wildlife conservation across the nation. These funds also support hunter education programs, shooting range development and habitat conservation projects that benefit both game and non-game species in every state.

This latest Partner with a Payer video underscores the importance of industry and agency partnerships in conservation efforts across the country and highlights how manufacturers, hunters and conservationists all play a role in protecting America’s rich wildlife heritage.

Millennium Sportsline Stadium Seats Are the Champions of Spectator Comfort

Pearl, MS (February 27, 2025) – Metal or wood bleachers may offer a great view of the game but don’t provide much comfort for fans.

The Millennium Sportsline Stadium Seat stays securely in place with an adjustable strap that runs underneath the bleacher, a feature lacking in many competitors’ models. There’s no worry about tipping backward or sliding to the side.
When it’s time to go home, the Stadium Seat folds down to 20 x 17 x 7” for easy transport and weighs just 5.6 pounds – among its lightest and slimmest products.
Everyone can enjoy the Stadium Seat. It’s a roomy 20” wide, well above the industry average, and supports up to 400 pounds.

The BMP-23 from Hydra Weaponry is Now Shipping

Posted on Friday, 28 February, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

The BMP-23 from Hydra Weaponry is Now Shipping

A modern evolution of the iconic Bushmaster Arm Pistol is ready for the 21^st century.

Hermon, Maine (February 2025) – Hydra Weaponry, Maine’s largest firearms employer, designers, and manufacturers of the truly modular MARCK-15 Hydra® Weapon Sys t em, is proud to announce that the BMP-23 pistol, a modernized evolution of the legendary Bushmaster Arm Pistol, is now shipping. Originally designed by firearms innovator Mack Gwinn Jr. in the early 1970s, this revolutionary firearm has been reimagined for today’s shooters with advanced materials and precision CNC manufacturing.

The BMP-23 is a 5.56mm pistol that retains the innovative design elements of its predecessor while incorporating modern enhancements. Featuring an 11.5” chrome-moly barrel and an AK-47-style gas piston operating system, the BMP-23 delivers reliability and performance in a compact, lightweight aluminum and steel construction weighing just 5.2 lbs. Built-in iron sights and a unique 40-degree swivel design allow for seamless right- or left-hand operation.

“The BMP-23 is exactly what my father would have built if he had access to today’s materials and machining capabilities,” said Mack Gwinn III, President of Hydra Weaponry. “We’ve taken his groundbreaking design and brought it into the modern era while staying true to his vision of a compact, powerful, and versatile firearm.”

The original Bushmaster Arm Pistol was developed as a compact survival weapon for aircrews and Special Forces, borrowing key elements from both AR-15 and AK-47 designs. Now, decades later, the BMP-23 honors that legacy while providing modern reliability and ergonomic improvements. MSRP is $2,350.

Dealers interested in carrying any of the H3 options should contact Tanner Smart for the Hydra Dealer Program.

The saw blade engages directly into the blade holder and features a blunt tip, making it perfect for sawing pelvic bones and sternum. This lightweight pod holds six blades, a saw, and a micro clean-out tool designed to remove debris from the saw blade and blade holder. Safety is also a priority; the storage pod is the answer for safe and responsible blade storage and transport. No more worrying about where blades will end up after use.

The new RAZOR APX 2.5” and 3.0” will be available at retailers nationwide and conveniently online at wwwoutdooredge.com in April. At a suggested retail price of $59.99 for the 2.5” model, you get a versatile tool designed with hunters in mind. Its compact size allows for easy handling while still delivering impressive cutting power. For those seeking even more functionality, the 3.0” version is available at $79.99. This model not only enhances your hunting experience but also includes compatibility with a replacement wood/bone saw blade– an essential addition for field dressing or light camp tasks and a new micro clean-out brush designed to remove fat, hair, and debris from the saw teeth and blade holder.

Kenneth Kieser’s New Book, “My Life Outdoors: 50 Years Hunting and Fishing Across America,” is Full of Excitement and Adventure

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Feb. 27, 2025)- For over five decades, Kenneth Kieser has immersed himself in the wild beauty of America’s landscapes, crafting stories that resonate with outdoor enthusiasts, adventurers, and conservationists alike. His passion for the outdoors is only matched by his talent for storytelling, which shines through in his latest book, “My Life Outdoors: 50 Years Hunting and Fishing Across America.” This captivating memoir chronicles his adventures from childhood to adulthood. Readers will journey alongside him as he navigates diverse landscapes, experiences various hunting seasons, and casts lines into shimmering waters.
This book isn’t just about techniques or gear; it explores the emotional connections forged during countless trips afield. Whether he shares stories of triumphs or lessons learned from failures, there’s an authenticity that resonates on every page. Kieser’s vivid storytelling brings each scene to life. It’s this immersive experience that makes his reflections not only relatable but also inspiring for anyone who cherishes outdoor pursuits.
Kenneth Kieser’s love for the outdoors blossomed in his youth, beginning when a neighbor generously dropped off copies of popular outdoor magazines. These magazines opened a portal to adventure and intrigue for him, and this early passion flourished into an impressive career as an award-winning freelance writer. His talent earned him numerous accolades, including Conservation Writer of the Year honors from both Missouri and Kansas. In 2020, he was inducted into the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame, joining an elite group of sports legends. Additionally, Kenny also gained recognition in the Waterfowlers Hall of Fame and the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame.
In addition to writing, he dedicated time to developing fishing programs for children with disabilities in partnership with Easter Seals and the Kansas City Chiefs. His commitment to conservation drove him to effectively advocate against disruptive power lines at Loess Bluff National Wildlife Refuge.
Kieser has dedicated his life to preserving and sharing the great outdoors. His new book, “My Life Outdoors: 50 Years Hunting and Fishing Across America,” is a tribute and invitation into a world filled with adventure, passion, and the natural environment. For those who share his love for hunting and fishing, this narrative provides both inspiration and education.
Whether you’re looking to improve your skills or simply enjoy well-told stories that celebrate outdoor life, Kenneth Kieser’s latest work deserves a spot on your bookshelf. It captures the essence of what it means to be truly alive in nature—a sentiment any outdoor enthusiast can appreciate.
“My Life Outdoors: 50 Years Hunting and Fishing Across America” is available in paperback on Amazon (My Life Outdoors: 50 Years Hunting and Fishing Across America: Kieser, Kenneth, [Ljava.lang.String;@4c52ea9e: 9798302743091: Amazon.com: Books) or by CLICKING HERE.
